‘‘Why don’t you come to hear Mr. Jones?’’ he said to the leading farmer. ‘*He’s an excellent fellow and preaches far better than I do.”’
‘*That may be, sir,’’ was the grave rejoinder, ‘‘but we've been inquiring | and inguiring about your curate, and we can’t find as he’s got any property, and we don’t like to be told of our sins by a person as haga’t got no property.’’ —Strand M4gazine.

THE DAILY FXAMINER CHARLOTTETOWN, MAY 27, 1897,
SINCE SISTER’S GOT A BEAU.
There's quite a change around at home, and all is mow serene
Where once upon @ time war raged and troybles I had seen.
The reason thig is brought about to youl mean to shew.
It’s all because a man comes here, and he is sister's beau.
I don't know how she captured him, but he eomes here just the same,
And for fear that he will stay away I will not give his name.
But I only hope he'll always come; I real- ly love him so,
For everything ts now so nice since alis- ter’s got a beau.
I can spin my top in the parlor and gen- erally have my way.
Yesterfay a boy cut leose my kite, and sis bought one today.
Bhe als a show,
I fee} ¥ appy now to say that sister's Rot a beau,
gave me marbles and took me to
The roosters and the chickens all seem to be so proud,
And the cats upon the back yard fence at night sting extra loud;
The birds up in the tree tops their happi- ness do show,
And this haz all been brought about since sister's got a beau.
I hope scme one will make him come; I only wish I could.
Yes, there's two bits a week I get for keeping ma in wood.
I'll give this money to this man—sis calls him Mr. Joe—
Because I'm having too good a time for sis to lose that beau.
~A. C. Phelps in New Orleans Picayune.
LAMPS AND CANDLES.
There Is an Art In the Managing of Them,
The most effective cleansing sub- stance for the containers and wick ap-. paratus consists of ordinary wood asb. This has a peculiar effect upon petro- leum, crystal and other oils of the same kind. Rub the ashes well all over the, parts that require cleaning and polish, or wipe it of with a olean, soft cloth. | This is a very simple method and obvi-, ates the use of water, which may prove. a serious difficulty, especially if the op- erator is not very particular as regards, the drying process. This treatment: should not, however, entirely do away, with a periodical boiling of the differ- ent parts of the lamp with strong soda, but the regular use of wood ash should. make the washing a last resource and. an altogether rare necessity.
The strictest cleanliness in every de- tail concerning lamps is of the greatest importance not only to insure a good light free from smell, but also as a pre- ventive against danger. Odd bits af wick allowed to collect anywhere near the flame, for instance, are objection- able from every point of view.
Lamps that are but rarely used should not be left with the wick to become sat- urated through contact with the oil... The best plan is to empty the container, clean it as above, dry the wick if it is new, and put it aside in a box, into which dust cannot penetrate, till it is wanted again.
For these days, when candles are so much used, it is well to know that thera is an artin choosing them. They shonld burn brightly, steadily, and without flickering, yet at the same time dwin- dle away as slowly as possible. The can- die that gutters is to be avoided as ex- travagant and worthless. The best of all are those which are partially bol- lowed out, so that if the flame is ex- posed to a draft the melted wax runs down the inside. A thin, close wick will always burn better than a thick one. One of the cleyerest contrivances adapted to candles is a metal automatic extinguisher. It can be fixed to any re- quired depth of the candle, say one inch, more or less, and as soon as that quan- tity has burned away two metal rings. close over the flame and effectually pat it out. Something of the kind has ab ready been seen, but the newer patent is much more practical, from the very fact that it can be fixed to any part oi the candle instead of being placed in the candle holder, for in the latter case it could not act until the illuminant bad quite burned down, when the extin- guisher was obviously of doubtful util- ity. —San Francisco Chronicle.
The Fur Seal as an Animal,
Mr. David Starr Jerdan, president of the Bering sea commission for 1896, and George Archibald Clark, seeretary to the commission, say in The Forum:
The male fur seal, or ‘‘beachmaster,”’ reaches full maturity at the age of 7 years. At that time his weight is about 400 to 500 pounds, being considerabiy heavier when first in from the sea in the spring or after feeding in the fall than in the intervening period, when he fasts on land and grows gradually lean and weak. The males vary consid- erably in color, the general shade being black or dark brown, with longer bair or bristles of yellowish white.. These are especially long and numerouson the thickened back of the neck, forming the so called ‘‘wig.’’
The wigged males have a rough, coarse coat, and their skins are without market value. The animal makes its home on the rocky shores of the islands in large, closely massed bands, formtng what are called “rookeries.’’ It is ex- tremely gregarious, individuals seldom venturing far from the main body while on land, though wandering about singly inthesea _
